Life and Living
Part Fourteen
Do you remember what we learned about walking?
Yes, learning to walk meant getting up from falling.
Learning to eat meant getting a messy face washed.
Learning what true or correct means is a difficult time for a five-year-old.
It can even be difficult for a twenty-five-year-old person who might forget sometimes.
Saying what is true then is going to be the best goal by the parents when that is what they desire from their child.
When the truth does not come out in a sentence but a lie or a falsehood, it will be time for both parent and child to learn what repentance and forgiveness are.
When a parent asks the other parent for forgiveness when they have said they are sorry for telling a lie, this is a great teaching tool.
Love shows this is true.
This is needed in the child’s eyes.
Don’t hide the truth from a child eyes. If a child has heard the lie, they deserve to hear the repentance and the forgiveness between the two concerned parents.
Tears in the eyes of both parents teach a mouthful to the child.
This might be the time for a group prayer.
I’ll start first since there are tears in my eyes as I finish writing.
